Atlas of Blood and Qi Disorders in Chinese Medicine(9780939616725)

ISBN: 9780939616725Publisher: Eastland PressBinding: Paperback

In Chinese medicine, qi and blood are the most
fundamental elements of the human body, and disorders affecting either of them
can give rise to a variety of condi­tions. Dysfunctions or abnormalities of the
channels, collaterals, and the various tissues and organs of the body are all
related to changes in the qi and blood. Understanding and treating these
disorders is therefore very important in clinical practice.

Atlas of Blood and Qi Disorders in Chinese Medicine provides over a hundred vivid photographic examples of
blood and qi disorders drawn
from actual clinical practice along with a
discussion of associated clinical manifestations, diagnostic procedures, and
treatment principles and methods. Individual chapters are devoted to patterns
of qi deficiency, blood deficiency, hot and cold blood, blood statis, and
bleeding as well as the tongue signs related to these disorders. The book also discusses associated eight
parameter and organ theory, with many helpful summary tables at the end of each
chapter.

"As qi and blood
are basic elements of Chinese medicine, the differentiation of qi and blood
disorders is one of the main diagnostic methods. Atlas of Blood and Qi Disorders in Chinese Medicine provides
photographic images of real cases along with detailed clinical manifestations,
diagnostic procedures, treatment principles, and methods. I am delighted to
recommend this publication to those in the medical profession as well as
students, practitioners, and others interested in traditional Chinese
medicine.”
